Due to Louisville’s rising COVID-19 numbers, many festive activities have been canceled or adjusted to the CDC’s guidelines. Here are some activities that are still going on around the city that people can take part in while keeping their safety in mind. 

Santa’s Club 

Since children cannot visit Santa in person this year, Santa’s Club is hosting virtual meetings with Santa Claus for children to take part in. For a live meeting with Santa, the price is $49.99. For the memories, a keepsake video of the meeting is also included in this price.

City of Jeffersontown’s Holiday Light Show 

The City of Jeffersontown’s Holiday Light Show is a drive-through event that will showcase lights at Veterans Memorial Park. This free event runs through November 21 to December 31. 

Rudolph Run 

Sign up for Rudolph Run, a fun car adventure, where you find missing information from Santa’s list using the clues you find along the way. As a prize, every person who finishes the list is put into a contest to win a $100 gift card, and one person will be selected each week. The adventure will end at an ice-skating rink, where there is also a holiday market. Costs are listed on the website.
